25 Jun 2025 CW Team

In an age where residential security is a growing necessity, the AX PRO wireless intrusion alarm system by Hikvision offers a sophisticated solution tailored for homes, apartments, and villas. With cutting-edge features such as video verification, remote monitoring, and environmental sensors, AX PRO provides an all-in-one approach to safeguarding modern living spaces.

The system, available in DS-PWA64-KIT-WB and DS-PWA96-KIT-WB models, supports over 200 peripheral devices, ensuring full coverage—from entry points to interior areas. It uses multiple communication channels (LAN, Wi-Fi, and dual SIM cards) to guarantee uninterrupted connectivity.

On detecting an intrusion, AX PRO sends a 7-second video or image to the user via the Hik-Connect app, enabling immediate assessment and reducing false alarms. Users can control, monitor, and configure the system remotely via a user-friendly mobile interface.

Key components include PIR motion detectors with visual confirmation, magnetic and shock sensors for doors, lockers, and safes, and glass break detectors designed to distinguish between knocks and breaking sounds. Environmental safety is bolstered through integrated smoke, water, and temperature sensors that alert residents to fire risks, leaks, or heat surges.

For emergency situations, strategically placed panic buttons, indoor and outdoor sirens, and smart switches offer rapid response and smart automation, such as lighting control.

AX PRO is also compatible with professional remote monitoring services via SIA protocols or IP integration, supporting multi-location oversight through third-party software.

Designed with ease of installation and operation in mind, the system brings advanced perimeter protection into the hands of everyday users, offering a seamless and dependable residential security experience.
